Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a kitchen and bathroom product, and more particularly to a water outlet device. Background Technology

[0002] The sealing of traditional water distribution switching structures mainly relies on the hard compression sealing ring between the water distribution plate and the handle. In order to ensure sealing under both low and high pressure, the sealing amount of the sealing ring is set to be relatively large. Therefore, its air-cutting switching force is relatively large, making it difficult to switch.

[0003] Traditional water diversion switching structures typically consist of two modules: the switching structure and the water diversion structure. The switching structure has more parts and is therefore more expensive. Utility Model Content

For example, "connection" can be a wall-mounted connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can be a connection within two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0046] Example 1

[0047] refer to Figures 1-12 This embodiment provides a water distribution switching structure that can be used on various water outlet devices, including: water outlet body 1, plug 2, operating component 3, water distribution plate 4, and leather cup sealing gasket 5;

[0048] The water distribution plate 4 is disposed between the water outlet 1 and the plug 2. The plug 2 has a water inlet channel 21, and the water outlet 1 has a first water outlet channel 11. The operating component 3 is connected to the water distribution plate 4 so as to drive the water distribution plate 4 to move between a first position and a second position under the action of external force. In this way, by changing the relative position of the water distribution plate 4 and the water outlet 1, the leather cup sealing gasket 5 can be used to open or seal the first water outlet channel 11.

[0049] Specifically, the water distribution plate is provided with a leather cup sealing gasket 5 corresponding to the first water outlet channel 11; when the water distribution plate 4 is in the first position, the leather cup sealing gasket 5 corresponds to the water inlet of the first water outlet channel 11 to seal the first water outlet channel 11; when the water distribution plate 4 is in the second position, the leather cup sealing gasket 5 is offset from the water inlet of the first water outlet channel 11 to open the first water outlet channel 11, and the water inlet channel 21 is connected to the first water outlet channel 11.

[0050] In this embodiment, the relative movement between the water distribution plate 4 and the water outlet 1 is rotation. Therefore, the operating component 3 and the water distribution plate 4 are axially linked. The operating component 3 is sleeved on the outside of the water distribution plate 4 and has a chamber through which the water distribution plate 4 passes. The inner wall of the chamber protrudes inward to form two ribs 31, and the side wall of the water distribution plate 4 extends radially outward to form a protrusion 41. During assembly, the two ribs 31 are located on either side of the protrusion 41, allowing the water distribution plate 4 and the operating component 3 to move together. The user rotating the operating component 3 will cause the water distribution plate 4 to rotate as well. Therefore, the operating component 3 in this embodiment is a knob.

[0051] In this embodiment, the water outlet 1 has its outlet in the first water outlet channel 11 on one side along the axial direction. The plug 2 is installed on the other side of the water outlet 1 along the axial direction. To fix the plug 2, the end face of the water outlet 1 facing the plug 2 is provided with a screw post 12 for fixing the plug 2. Therefore, as long as the water distribution plate 4 is inserted into the other side of the water outlet 1 along the axial direction, the water distribution plate 4 is provided with a clearance opening 49 for the screw post 12 to pass through. The plug 2 is then fixedly connected to the plug 2 by the screw 6 and the screw post 12, thus completing the fixed installation of the plug 2 and the water outlet 1. The water distribution plate 4 is also clamped between the plug 2 and the water outlet 1. This connection method ensures that the water distribution plate 4 will not fall off. However, the water distribution plate 4 still has a degree of rotational freedom in the axial direction. Therefore, the water distribution plate 4 can be rotated by the operating component 3 to realize the water outlet and water stop of the first water outlet channel 11.

[0052] To install the rubber cup sealing gasket 5 and the water distribution plate 4, the water distribution plate 4 has an installation hole 42 on the side facing the water outlet 1. An installation post 43 extends along the height direction within the installation hole 42. One end of a spring 44 is fitted onto the installation post 43, and the other end abuts against the rubber cup sealing gasket 5. This allows the rubber cup sealing gasket 5 to be embedded in the installation hole 42, with its top abutting against the other end of the spring 44 and compressing the spring 44. The pre-compression of the spring 44 by the rubber cup sealing gasket 5 allows the spring 44 to exert a reaction force on the rubber cup sealing gasket 5, making the contact between it and the water outlet 1 tighter and increasing the sealing effect. As a simple alternative to this embodiment, the spring 44 can be omitted, and the rubber cup sealing gasket 5 can be directly installed onto the installation hole 42 of the water distribution plate 4, relying on the compression of the rubber cup sealing gasket 5 itself to achieve the sealing effect.

[0053] In this embodiment, the bottom surface of the leather cup sealing gasket 5 is flat, and the top is recessed inward to form a water storage tank 51. The presence of the water storage tank 51 can increase the water pressure on the leather cup sealing gasket 5, increase the compression of the leather cup sealing gasket 5, and make its sealing effect with the water outlet 1 better.

[0054] Furthermore, the water distribution plate 4 is provided with a bottom water outlet 45; when the water distribution plate 4 is in the first position, the bottom water outlet 45 is used to introduce water from the inlet channel 21 into the mounting hole 42, and the water pressure pushes the diaphragm sealing gasket 5 to seal against the inlet of the first outlet channel 11. Thus, under high pressure, the high-pressure water flow can enter the mounting hole 42 through the bottom water outlet of the water distribution plate 4, pushing the diaphragm sealing gasket 5 to achieve a better high-pressure sealing effect.

[0055] In the above structure, the water flowing out of the inlet channel 21 of the plug 2 must pass through the water distribution plate 4 before flowing into the outlet water body 1. Therefore, the side wall of the water distribution plate 4 is provided with a side water outlet 46, which is used to lead the water from the inlet channel out of the water distribution plate 4 and then into the outlet water body 1.

[0056] Since water from the inlet channel 21 can still enter the outlet body 1 through the water distribution plate 4 when the first outlet channel 11 is closed, the outlet body 1 also includes a second outlet channel 13 in order to allow water to flow out from the outlet body 1 at this time.

[0057] In this embodiment, the first water outlet channel 11 and the second water outlet channel 13 are opened alternately by rotating the water distribution plate 4. Therefore, when the water distribution plate 4 is in the second position, the leather cup sealing gasket 5 corresponds to the water inlet of the second water outlet channel 13 to seal the second water outlet channel 13; when the water distribution plate 4 is in the first position, the leather cup sealing gasket 5 is offset from the water inlet of the second water outlet channel 13 to open the second water outlet channel 13, and the water inlet channel 21 is connected to the second water outlet channel 13.

[0058] Since the first water outlet channel 11 and the second water outlet channel 13 are located in different positions, for example, the inlets 111 and 131 of the first water outlet channel 11 and the second water outlet channel 13 are arranged from the inside to the outside along the radial direction of the water outlet body 1; or the water spray of the first water outlet channel 11 and the second water outlet channel 13 is different, by switching like this, the user can select the size of the water outlet area or different water spray.

[0059] Finally, in this embodiment, a sealing groove 47 is provided on the side of the water distribution plate 4, and a first Y-shaped sealing ring 48 is installed in the sealing groove 47 to seal the inner wall of the water outlet body 1. The part of the plug 2 inserted into the water distribution plate 4 has a step 22 on its outer wall for installing a second Y-shaped sealing ring 23, which is used to seal the inner wall of the water distribution plate 4.

[0060] Example 2

[0061] refer to Figure 13 and 14 In this embodiment, when the water distribution plate 4 is in the first or second position, the second water outlet channel 13 is always connected to the water inlet channel 21. That is to say, the second water outlet channel 13 is always discharging water, and the only change caused by the operation component 3 driving the water distribution plate 4 to rotate is whether the first water outlet channel 11 is discharging water.

[0062] Example 3

[0063] refer to Figure 15 and Figure 16 The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the water outlet 1 is also provided with a beauty liquid component 14 in the first water outlet channel 11. This allows some beauty liquid to be carried out by the water flow into the beauty liquid component when the first water outlet channel 11 is opened, thus achieving the effect of mixing beauty liquid in the water outlet.

[0064] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All technically equivalent modifications made based on the content of the present utility model specification shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
